Our 03 Sable problems

Purchased 03 Sable with 20,000 miles on it. Excellent car until two years later when the transmission went out 1,000 miles from warrenty expiring. I just today had to have the drums and back brakes repaired. Only has 42,000 miles on it. Other then that car has been reliable. I will never buy another Ford though.

Considered this low mileage car as a replacement for high mileage Honda Civic. I was ready to do the deal but my mechanic said I’m better off with the Honda which is running fine just a lot of miles and it won’t last forever! Mechanic is a personal friend so his recommendation wasn’t based on future repairs to the Honda.

The Duratec has more responsive power than the new Crown Vic LS-Sport's souped up V-8. Fast and nimble car! Back seat is surprisingly roomy, but front leg room is big disappointment for taller driver. Put seat back for legs, can't reach wheel comfortably. Bad proportions, bad intrusive left front wheel well into driver's left leg area. Foot will fall asleep bent up on foot rest!

This car is pretty nice to drive, but its nothing special. We've owned this car for 5 years now and still nothing really stands out as special. It gets pretty good gas mileage under 55 mpg on the highway. Also, once it gets to about a quarter tank of gas, the fuel pump shuts off. We had to push it over a mile to a gas station, I mean, what a stupid design failure. Overall, this car is not very impressive
